    He deserves it.

    Podolski was IMMENSE. Defending needs some work (As with midfield) but GREAT ATTACKING PLAY

    If Theo wants 100k, just give it to him. Since he's become a CF, we've won 3 straight PL games (and a 4th before him being a CF). He was awesome against reading, he won us the (admittedly dodgy) penalty against whoever we played last week, and he was great today. Therefore, i conclude 1 thing:

    Theo Walcott is a Striker

    The thing about this attacking performance was that Cazorla was not anywhere near his best and we could have still scored 10 or more.

    We've got more chance of staying in the Premier League than Walcott signing a new contract! He wants to win trophies, and he won't do that at Arsenal. You can't even beat Bradistan. <doh>

    Yeah. I'd play Rosicky instead of him vs Southampton.

    No I asked that genuinely. It seems at least I'm able to articulate what I think his positives and negatives are (and why I think his negatives outweigh positives against most opponents we will face), the people attacking me have a "1.complete **** or 2. super awesome" way of rating players, and assume I put Walcott in the first.


    You can check my post from ages ago where I say Walcott does well against teams with shambolic defending on the day, and snowball games.

    but without walcott we would still be in the premiership.

    Whereas you have NO chance of making it with the big teams.

    tick tick tick .

    Soton is on Tuesday right? If thats the case, we should rest a few players for Swansea in the cup.

    Even from 20 minutes play you can see why Giroud should play in the middle. What Walcott does he can do from the wings as well. You're losing potential just to accommodate the wishes of a player.

    Good strikers will make any defense look shambolic.

    But they just hammered a Newcastle team that dominated WPR?

    I, like all supporters of other teams, have no problem wumming for a laugh, and certainly have given my arsenal workmates and friends a lot of grief, but to base the team off of one awful result is the mark of a fool.

    Personally I highly rate Theo Walcott and would of liked it if he came to Liverpool but after the last 4 games it seems he's proven he can be upfront for Arsenal so he's gonna get a new contract.

    The player in question was involved in 5 goals today. No offence to Giroud, he's been a good signing, but on current form, Theo deserves to start over him.
